There's definitely something odd going on, but nobody's quite sure what it is. The Verizon rep called me back several times today and was monitoring my traffic - it was going reeeeaaaalllllyyy sloooooow - and I was getting a time-out error on the PDA.

She called everyone she could to verify that there was nothing wrong with the network.

Finally, at about 3pm Pacific Time, she told me that it seemed to be a problem with the device, and that I should try to go to a Verizon store and stand next to a salesperson (Treo to Treo if you will) and see if one could connect when the other couldn't. Problem is, no store has the 700p yet.

Then, out of nowhere, the thing starts behaving perfectly. Nothing was changed on either end.

It's only been 10 minutes, but so far so good.

The Verizon rep is going to check back in with me early tomorrow morning. I'll keep you all posted...
